Democratic Trash: The Story That Just Won't Go Away 
A note from Radarsite: This is fascinating. As happened before with the Hillary Forum, Radarsite started getting an inordinate amount of hits from an Obama camp website. So we looked into it. If anyone is interested in the differences between the Clinton Dems and the Obama Camp just read these comments, lifted directly from Democratic Underground and compare them with the Clinton Dems responses from The Hillary Clinton Forum reported here in an earlier Radarsite article. Whereas the general consensus from the comments thread at the Hillary Forum was one of surprisingly sincere regret and honest acceptance of responsibility for what had become a major political gaff, the Obama people are merely angry and defensive. Very angry and very defensive. Almost immediately the conspiracy theorists got to work. No acceptance of responsibility whatsoever. Just angry backlashes at everyone but themselves.
Till now, I must confess, I hadn't really appreciated the differences between these two Democratic factions. But I certainly do now. As much as I disagree with their candidate's vision of America and where they would want to bring this country, the Hillary Dems seem to have exhibited a strong sense of sincerity and humanity. They have stepped up to the plate and accepted responsibility for what has turned out to be a major strategic blunder -- even though it was more the responsibility of the Obama Camp to control the images that came out of that Obama Celebration.
And how do the Obama people react to their own revealing anti-patriotic blunders? They react with viciousness and anger. They call on their attack dogs to do their work. Cynical, manipulative, their only concern is in discrediting the source. No responsibility. No embarrassment. No concern for how their obvious disregard for patriotism may look to the average American.
To me, this whole episode has been an education. This is what an Obama Presidency would offer. A Democratic redux of the Nixon years, with all of that petty hatred and viciousness, and with a whole new Enemies' List. This, my friends, is a clear and unadulterated view of the Obama Camp, and it is both enlightening and disgusting. Read their comments and decide for yourselves. We have deleted the commenters identities. - rg

***LET'S GET TO WORK ON THIS FLAG THING NOW***
"We need to press the meme that the McCain campaign STOLE the flags."
Here's the article from Puke News:
John McCain’s campaign prepared to accuse Democrats on Saturday of leaving behind 12,000 miniature American flags after Barack Obama’s nomination acceptance speech last Thursday in Denver.Boy Scouts have arrived with 84 trash bags full of bundles of flags at the site of a McCain rally scheduled to begin at 12:30 p.m. local time in Colorado Springs.The campaign says the flags were recovered from Invesco Field after the Democrats concluded their convention there, and they are going to be used as part of the warm-up ceremonies before McCain takes the stage for the rally.FOX News has been told a vendor at Invesco Field found the flags, which were going to be thrown out, and turned them over to the McCain campaign.Notice anything strange here?
